Abstract
A fabric decorating kit with washable coloring. The kit comprises a fabric piece, such as an article of apparel, and/or a plurality of washable markers, paints, and crayons, for decorating and creating artwork on the fabric piece. The fabric piece may be washed repeatedly and re-decorated.
Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/052,096, filed May 9, 2008, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to the field of fabric decoration in general and to a fabric decorating kit with washable coloring, in particular.
- 2. Prior Art
- The idea of decorating and creating artwork on fabric is well known in the art and is the basis of many children's projects at schools, homes, camps, picnics, parties, etc. In such projects, paint, markers, and colors are typically utilized to decorate an article of apparel, such as a t-shirt. Other similar projects involve the use of pre-printed or pre-selected artwork, such as pictures, slogans, or signs, which can be transferred onto the fabric through heat and pressure. However, several problems exist with such prior art methods. First, such decorating methods are permanent, thus once the artwork has been applied to the fabric, it cannot be modified or changed. Second, such permanent decorating methods are also not practical or economical, requiring the use/purchase of a plurality of fabric pieces for every new artwork to be applied. Third, as mentioned above, much of the heat/pressure transferable artwork is pre-determined, as opposed to being personalized and creative. Finally, once the artwork application has been completed, it is often cumbersome and time-consuming to collect, organize, and store the various artwork paraphernalia in their respective locations. Accordingly, an improvement over what is available in the prior art is desired.
- For these reasons, an improved fabric decorating kit meeting the following objectives would be highly desirable.
- It is an object of the invention to provide an improved fabric decorating kit comprising washable coloring.
- It is another object of the invention to provide an improved fabric decorating kit that allows for repeated washing and re-decoration of the fabric.
- It is another object of the invention to provide an improved fabric decorating kit that is practical.
- It is another object of the invention to provide an improved fabric decorating kit that is economical.
- Yet another object of the invention is to provide an improved fabric decorating kit that allows for a personalized and creative approach to creating wearable art.
- It is another object of the invention to provide an improved fabric decorating kit that allows for a quick and easy organization and storage of the artwork paraphernalia.

kit 1 further compriseswashable colors 12, such ascrayons 12 a,markers 12 b, paints 12 c, colored pens, colored pencils etc. and the like. As used herein, the term “washable colors” refers to water soluble colorants, such as dyes, contained in aqueous solutions, as well as to water insoluble colorants, such as pigments, contained in aqueous dispersions. In short, any aqueous based coloring agent, which once applied, will re-dissolve or re-disperse when re-exposed to water will be suitable for use in the present invention. There exist a variety of commercially-availablewashable colors 12 in the market, such colors being non-toxic and formulated to easily wash from skin and clothing. Some preferred examples include: Crayola® Doodling Fine Line Washable Markers, Crayola® Washable Super Tips, Crayola® Squeezable Washable Bold 3-D Paint, Crayola® Washable Finger Paint, and Crayola® Washable Crayons; School Smart® Washable Finger Paint Set; School Smart®Washable Markers; Elmer's® 3D Washable Paint Pens; and Mr. Sketch® Fiddle Sticks Washable Unscented Markers.
